From the hllug list, a hotbed of *nix heads. ;) ==== You can get it (free) here: http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download.html Print Edition is $9.94 at Amazon: link to book at Amazon in above link! ==== I've skimmed and it looks good.And for whatever it's worth, re-installing "XP Media Center 2000 or whatever" on Clyde's laptop still required installing a lot of drivers. Ubuntu 6 (2 versions old!) booting from a freaking CD seemed to have /everything/ working. I don't have any wireless networking stuff so that is an unknown. Simply amazing.Not saying to get rid of XP or Vista. Just saying to try Ubuntu... running off of a CD... play with it and stretch your mind.Thanks for the link Lee. paul
